A sonogram (also called an ultrasound) is a very reasonable test to get in addition to 3-D mammography for women with an intermediate risk and dense breast tissue.

Background:In obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), adipose tissue expansion (because of larger adipocytes) results in reduced microvascular density which is thought to lead to adipocyte hypoxia ...

Alterations in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) are closely linked to cardiometabolic abnormalities. The aim of this work is to define a metabolic signature in VAT of insulin resistance (IR) dependent on ...

Researchers have found evidence of a previously unrecognized soft tissue structure in the cheek region of many dinosaur species, which they've called the "exoparia." The finding deepens our ...

Cancer screening poses a quandary for women with dense breast tissue. They’re at elevated risk for breast cancer, but mammograms often miss tumors buried in dense breasts — and insurers often ...

Chronic back pain (CBP) affects over 80 million people in Europe, contributing to substantial healthcare costs and disability. Understanding modifiable risk factors, such as muscle composition, may ...

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays a vital role in non-shivering thermogenesis and energy metabolism and is influenced by factors like environmental temperature, ageing, and obesity. However, the ...

BACKGROUND: Diet-induced white adipose tissue inflammation is associated with insulin resistance and metabolic perturbations. Conversely, exercise protects against the development of diet-induced ...

Increased pericardial adipose tissue (PEAT) is associated with a series of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and metabolic syndromes. Quantitative analysis of PEAT by means of image segmentation is of ...

The study presents important findings on inositol-requiring enzyme (IRE1α) inhibition on diet-induced obesity (overnutrition) and insulin resistance where IRE1α inhibition enhances thermogenesis and ...

A brown-to-white adipogenic transdifferentiation process in the periureter region of mouse renal adipose tissue gives rise to a population of cold-inducible adipocytes with a transcriptome distinct ...

A comprehensive understanding of how dietary components impact immunoregulatory gene expression in adipose tissue (AT) and liver, and their respective contributions to metabolic health in mice, ...
